  • thanks I've been looking for a tutorial so thanks for posting this up

  • pro man loved the performance

    

  • this isnt the original way to do it

  • @THExMAj1KxMan that was good but you ned to act more calm its a good trick i think its good :D keep doing them XD.

  • You've just ruined my childhood memories.

  • Ty for this video. Pls keep doing more reveal videos. Makes stupid ppl angry but makes smart ppl glad. :)

  • Не плохо. Но качество демонстрации храмает.

  • Gah! Much as I dislike "reveals," I must admit that was a great "to the point" tutorial. A LOT of other videos ramble on-and-on way too much. And it's a secret that will NOT be wasted as I intend to actually perform this now. Thanks.

  • THExMAj1KxMaN u are a DUMB ASS you should lean how to do a card trick or card cheat before u show anyone and practice practice, my football coach 'told us that it not where you start but where you finish' I been working on card cheating for 2 months so far and i not going to show any one until i master it ok

  • 0:36-0:38 xD

  • Check out Wayne Houchin's version

  • I still don't get it how they don't have Nything in there hands

  • @saaheem5 okay so they really dont have anything in thier hands...BUT there is a card on top of aa card lying on the table when you bang down you push that top card of the other card...giving the illusion you just made it appear... oh and guys if people didnt reveal magic, magic couldnt be passed down for others to perform....dont search a tutorial for a magic trick then leave hate...

  • @lynxman792 thx so much dude, it really helped :)

  • guys wow.. your know sleights yourself! thats why you can tell what hes doing. this trick is for people who are NOT a magician duuurrrrrrr..

  • revealed it during performance!!!

  • Merci super bien (=

  • i only watched it for the 1st min and it was pretty obvious that you put 2 cards down then just smudged them apart on the table

  • I'm a magician, and I'm sick and tired of all the retards on Youtube bashing magic "reveals" and tutorials. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH TEACHING HOW TRICKS ARE DONE. People pay to see magic to be entertained, not to learn how the tricks are done. We shouldn't flatter ourselvles. Most people don't care. The people who watch tutorials want to perform the trick, not simply know how it was done. The kids who watch Youtube tutorials aren't going to buy a $60 book on magic anyway.

  • Fcking Nobb Lern first -.-!" I lost my time !"

  • How exactly is revealing a trick "putting artists out of work"? Do you go to magic shows just to try to figure out how the tricks are done? No, you go to see a performance. Knowing how the trick is done doesn't change that performance.

    Maybe you're just angry because you knew how the trick was done (but can't perform it very well) and that made you feel "superior" to those who didn't. A good illusionist is good even if the audience knows how every trick is done.

  • he didnt even need to reveal u can see what he was doing it was so bad

  • Epic fail ...

    Ace of heart @ 0:53 and @ 0:56 ...

    You just suck to reveal a trick like this, but u performed it so low ... I don't care

  • this guy is an idiot

  • Decided to revisit, and read some more comments. You see, posting as you say you're 'teaching' is a misnomer. Teaching comes from a space of understanding, guiding 'students' through the minutae of intricacies. None of this is evident. Those wishing to learn from your 'performance' will continue the cycle of badly performed 'magic' & think it good, 'great' and ...'cool'. To 'teach' you have to be a teacher. So forgive my 'rudeness' when I say you're not. Learn more about how it all works.

    JJ

  • Firstly I agree that there is no place for rudeness between magicians and an air of professionalism should be maintained. However in saying that simply making videos of "youtubes best card tricks REVEALED!!!" and all the other nonsense ending in REVEALED!!! simply is 9 times out of 10 a result of a hobbyist magician who DOES NOT have the ability to perform a well structured flowing card ROUTINE. As a result they perform a few tricks and are probably put up with by spectators.

  • AWESOME trick!!

  • you havent revealed anything! your a noob with no idea about the subtleties involved!

  • @richiesambora2003uk

    And that's why it's not a terrible idea to post this kind of thing on Youtube. It provides a unique opportunity to receive criticism. Being critical, however, is different than calling people by derogatory names and condemning their entire performances.

  • @CardsAsWeapons maybe i was a little harsh. but if your going to "reveal" somthing, then at least learn about all the subtleties involved in making the trick magical. otherwise people learning this stuff end up doing it all wrong and with no finess what so ever.

  • I don't think you showing this on YouTube hurts any working magician....(I am) If some one see's the way you perform this they would pay 2 x's my asking price...

    (and I would do it left handed!)

    I don't post often but if you see a video and they have all 12 of there dirty packs of cards setting out, it get's a "please don't watch me" sent to my brain..This video made it about 20 seconds..

  • We know who the "dummy card is"

    This video should be spam....

  • I agree with yhamgtt, you suck at this trick. You should really learn how to perform a basic double lift as opposed to your... whatever you call that. He was right... train wreck was an understatement!!!

  • Dude, you suck. Watch Wayne houchin's performance and maybe you could be slightly even a little good at the invisible palm. And... That was a pathetic excuse for a performance.

  • Good job!

  • dude that was awesome that as bests trick yet for me

  • dude that was awesome

  • its not about knowing the trick, its about performing it

  • thanks ma, 7 years i searched it!!

  • If no one reveals how a trick is done, how are magicians going to teach new magicians how to perform magic?

  • Dont reveal it. This sucks bigtime man

  • What kind of deck did u use? And were can I get one like it?

  • thanks man ur awesome

  • i like it fuck all of them if they don't

  • really bad performance

  • delete this video. because of you i cannot use this as a routine anymore

  • Old the creator of a trick should be able to reveal a trick free of charge, and buddy you didn't invent this trick... Practice too...

  • you revealed a magicians trick.. which is ILLEGAL. and this is the worst performance i saw ever.

  • @elkalibre890 its not really that much different than a three card monty or any other 4 card coverup trick....just called by another name. A rose by any other name is just as

  • great job . dont listen to all those other comments. there just jealous that they needed u to teach them the trick

  • thank you

  • Cool that was awesome thanks for revealing it :)

  • this was really good

  • @elgato I think you're missing the point. Apart from 'performance' being non existent, apart from the handling being abysmal, and apart from the fact that he his revealing it (not teaching, not putting into the pot, so to speak, just 'revealing'), its not the point to not watch it if its crappy(Hmmmn how can one tell its crappy without watching it), its the fact he is REVEALING' it, and some poor neophyte will now think thats how it is to be performed. BADLY.

  • @theTartanTrickster

    I want to chime in here, theTartanTrickster. Is there any need to be so rude? Who are you to criticize the performance? Are you Lennart Green, Ricky Jay, Michall Ammar, Dai Vernon? Do you really have any right to be so arrogant and rude? That's something that has to be earned, and I doubt you've paid your dues.

    Also, what's wrong with revealing tricks? I'm going to be making a series on the principles of sleight of hand (based on "Expert at the Card Table").

  • @CardsAsWeapons

    Firstly I agree that there is no place for rudeness between magicians and an air of professionalism should be maintained. However in saying that simply making videos of "youtubes best card tricks REVEALED!!!" and all the other nonsense ending in REVEALED!!! simply is 9 times out of 10 a result of a hobbyist magician who DOES NOT have the ability to perform a well structured flowing card ROUTINE.

  • @89robbied

    Why do they need to have a well structured routine? I can think of 5 magicians than have won FISM that have no good routine and terrible presentation skills. Personally, I see no problem with a "hobbyist" magician posting a video on Youtube. Often times it's a good method of receiving criticism. I also suppose you are against people revealing tricks on Youtube. You're going to hate my series on sleight of hand; hopefully you won't treat me with the same rudeness you've treated him.

  • @CardsAsWeapons I dont check my yt inbox frequently but have just come across your replies. Firstly, thanks for taking the time to respond. My YT rant has a far larger remit that just folks doing reveals, and being rude was not my intention. Sarcastic, facestious, or slightly ascerbic, was the goal...

    Good luck with your project and look forward to seeing more.thanks again for taking the time to comment.

    Regards

    james

  • @theTartanTrickster

    I wouldn't call this a bad thing. There are two ways to enjoy magic. The first way is trying to figure out how it's done. The second is appreciating the technique of performers. If you don't want the trick revealed to you, then don't the video. I'm watching Lennart Green reveal all of his tricks right now, and I find it refreshing. Please, think before you speak, and also try being less insulting.

  • I'm really sick and tired of all the comments about how bad/crappy the performance was, if you don't like it DON'T watch it and that is it, you don't have to be so mean and negative with this guy, he's trying to do the best he can and is trying to help others to learn card tricks.

    To you magikman thank you very much and keep up the good work.

  • @elgato1998 Just watched your elmsley tuition on your channel. You do it very well, and teach it very well. Thats the way magic should be taught...

  • i like how the highest rating are crap comments......why dont you guys make a video and ill call you trick sucky and crapy........youre putting working artists out of work!? shut the fuck up!

  • There must be another one cause I've seen someone do it and have nothing in their hand but they made it re-appear in their hand...

  • thanks man was awsome

  • si vede subito il trucco babbo!

  • Thanks for the video really good job (Subscribed)

  • thanks for the trick it fooled my family

  • Awesome man thanks so much for posting this video keep the good work up (Subscribed)

  • i love it

  • awesomeeee

  • THIS IS AWESOME :D I will try it

  • Maybe you know all the tricks etc... But u perform em so badly... Sorry... I was really disappointed . . .

  • I love this trick

  • sucky performance, sucky quality

    and DONT reveal tricks! YOURE PUTTING WORKING ARTISTS OUT OF WORK!

  • @ellusionistjoey ok look if it was so worriable then go watch another video hhonestly after watching it a couple times the only bad thing about his preformence was his audince and the way he said things

  • @ellusionistjoey Oh shut your backside you little noob.

    He did a good performance, and who gives a toss about quality. Don't reveal it?!

    What is the difference in buying/finding it elsewhere? You didn't invent the damn trick dumbass, only that person can say don't reveal it. And if you did invent it, you must have revealed it for somebody else to perform it. And if you invented it and DID NOT reveal it, then it's simple as that - the card trick sucked.

  • @ellusionistjoey are you insane??? an artist is someone who can develope something. not someone being able to perform something. that is what you call a performer. And why would you watch this if you dont want to be spoiled? everyone who wants to learn basic performances should be allowed to watch tutorials! not should be forced to buy something or pay to see it!! Btw with this you can only impress your buddys not someone paying for it.

  • @ellusionistjoey

    Boo hoo, magicians have to come up with new tricks, boo hoo. :(

  • @ellusionistjoey yea, and if not perople like him, you would watch the same trick with the coin from your ear over and over again, coz no one knows the trick.

  • Comment removed

  • what's the point of revealing it?reflect pls!

  • Sorry very bad performance

  • OBVIOUS DOUBLE LIFT

  • Next David Blaine

  • don't hate on Mark Hilkemeijer

    he is the best magician on youtube and yes he performs magic for life.....thats the reason why he hate free online tutorials.

  • Niiice bro :) You should check out terificroy's youtube channel he a badass magician too

  • great trick and great tuturial

  • in the beginnin hda second ace was 2 put 2 gether

  • nice one mate

  • very nice

  • thats was sweeeeeeet! i had an instance throught out your performance that you were doing some double lifts and i was kinda aware of there being more than 4 cards. to the unskilled magcian or regular person, that is quite the amazing trick

  • muy bueno, buenisimo.

  • Thanks man really good tutorial really helped

  • a first class trick being demeaned like this really pains my heart out.

  • I watched Wayne Houchin do this then I wondered how it was done. I saw this guys performance and now I know hows it done. :)

  • good video

  • Awsoooooooooooooooooooooooooom­e

  • Why are you so nervous doing one of your favs? calm down. Take a breath. Relax. talk slower and the 'dummy' card is refered to as an 'indifferent' card.

  • if this is one of your favs why are you so nervous? calm down. talk slower. this really was a bad showing.

  • AWSOME!!!!NICE TRICK

  • absolutely awsome :x

  • when you show the four aces, when u flip them over before you put them together, u can see the back of at least 6cards when ur supposed to have only 4- the aces.. you revealed ur dummy cards son

  • es de madera y enseña juajajajajajajjajajaja

  • love the trick

  • a quick thing you can change is make a magic crumple or something before you show your hand empty, then do this again before you slap or spread the cards, this makes is harder for people to guess what you are doing.

  • Awesome ^^ 

  • amazing thank you

  • awsome trick , 

  • demn why must u reveal this powerrful trick.

    i was lucky cause my friends doenst knw whats the name of this trick.

    they were like "we'll find this trick on utube"

    magic is the form of art. why must you ruined it.

    my friend who was a magician also gt fucked up cause when he was doin color change which was very2 smooth n clean n somebody just said "aah he just slide the top card n push the bottom card bla bla." in front of the crowds. we spent money to learn magic dem it!

  • when you put one card down at a time, do it like you do when you double lift, other wise it is easy to tell something is different.

  • awesome

  • Also, since the damn comment box is limited. Damn good stuff THExMAj1KxMaN. Keep it up and thanks for teaching a woman getter trick thats nice and easy.

  • @BassmrDK you need to chill the hell out, the guy is answering questions people have always wondered about magic tricks, no less this is a card trick, something to wow the friends or women, showing people how this card trick works isn't going to put a magician who does a big show out of business any time soon. I don't know what your magician background is BassmrDK so I won't really judge but in all fairness, if these are the tricks you're doing in your shows, you're second rate at best.

  • @williamkwok86 Why is everyone so mad just because someone wrote it isn't okay to reveal other magicians magic on youtube?

  • Good explanation for me

  • thanks man u rock and that was a awesome performance and plz do reveagood performences

  • great job man it takes time to learn :P

  • 4 out of 5

  • 2 signs of total amatour.

    1: You have all your cards in the background so people can see you have the money for cards, but don't really care bout the magic.

    2. You revealed a trick on youtube.

    Actually 3: You didn't practice (especially not your double lift)

  • @BassmrDK ya know, cards are like $2 or 3 dollars a pack, lol so that's about $20-$30 of cards, not a real big dent in your bank account bro, and also, if he didn't care about the magic, then why the hell would he take the time to do the video lol... Good video man, better than what i can do

  • @XAwzX He's still an amatour revealing magic...

  • @BassmrDK 1 sign of being stupid, not being able to spell amateur, but still thinking you can point the finger.

  • @ThousandthMilePK Hey, relax man.... It's not everyone in the world who's from an english speaking country....

    And by the way is the end of your comment (but still thinking you can point finger.) a good thing or bad thin you're telling me?

    Just wanna know :)

  • @BassmrDK Actually, only 2 signs. Sign #2 for you is TOTALLY INCORRECT. Go check out mismag822 and then you take back what you said at sign #2. mismag822 is a wonderful magician he is great at tricks, and he reveals them. Before stating "facts" check out other people who are really good and you will see some reveal tricks. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT! btw, You didn't do your research about it either.

  • @Skybird1000 I agree that mismag822 is cool, but not because he reveals magic, because he makes contest's and his non-tutorial videos are cool too. I still hate him revealing other peoples magic.

    I wouldn't care if this trick was made by him, but since this is an other magicians creation, it's wrong and I'm sure that almost everyone you ask who've performed magic in more then 3 years (or profesionels) would agree with me.

  • @BassmrDK dude...next time you try upping yourself up against someone or trying to prove yourself better and more experienced....try spelling professionals correctly..mkay?

  • @blatoop Allright American kid. You and all your friends think you're better then everyone else just because the internet is in english. You're all dumb fucks who can't do anything else then sit on your fat ass and waiting for your fucking Mcdonalds food.

    And by the way, did I ask you to reply me? NO!

    And I'll bet you a free desert you are the teachers little golden kid because you can spell.

    And if you think I'm bad at writing try learning start your phrases using uppercased letters, asshole.

  • @BassmrDK chill dude.

    these ppl dont knw anything about magic.

    about art of magic and the secrets of magic.

    n they r mostly layman n hacklers.

  • @BassmrDK he is amazingly great!!!!!!!!

  • @BassmrDK

    I'm not American I am Puerto Rican and Japanese, and English is my second language. Um, and actually I am a vegetarian so I can't eat at McDonald's, and there is youtube available for a lot of different languages so chill. Actually I am home schooled, so you owe me a desert. Oh and by the way, next time watch your mouth, which automatically proves you to be ignorant. Also try being politically correct. Okay? Good.

  • @BassmrDK Actually, only 2 signs. Sign #2 for you is TOTALLY INCORRECT. Go check out mismag822 and then you take back what you said at sign #2. mismag822 is a wonderful magician he is great at tricks, and he reveals them. Before stating "facts" check out other people who are really good and you will see some reveal tricks. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT! btw, You didn't do your research about it either. I thought his double lift was fine, ofcourse not the best and most convincing, but it was good.

  • your pretty good i watced like three of your videos nice tricks

  • What this guy do is just the same as any of you, sharing some magic tricks, with less money involved.

  • very nice, your videos are very good, tnx.

  • when you showed the Aces... you had 5 cards:))...

  • i already knew it before you revealed. practice!!

  • Why would anyone watch past 1:30 considering you already gave it away?

  • If I were a magician i would be pissed... but I'm not :)

  • thank you, my 12 year old son loves to do "magic", but i don't know how to do any. that being said, he can learn to do these thanks to you. much appreciated.

  • Do not. Do not reveal it. Why would you? Seriously?

  • @EllusionistDJ cause they wanna act good.

  • the problem is you always do different placements for the extra cards, so it looks unatural and obvious.

  • I don't get what the big deal is about him revealing this. there's a million reveal videos out there, and yes, magicians have to earn a living, but saying that on every reveal video isn't going to fix that. And if you don't want to know the secret because you think it ruins the fun, then don't watch the video!

  • @elizze6

    yes dude your're right, buts its called a TRICK SECRET.

    what about the old rule not telling any secrets?

    Its okay to reveal quality tricks to quality magicians.

    But here everybody can see it.

    Have you ever performed an ACR and somebody said afterall "ah i saw that on youtube!"

    This should better happen to you

  • thats awesome!

  • where the fuck do you make the pinky break?!!??

  • @esuohkcats1 where would you guess?

  • teaching is bad

    but teaching when you cant even do it its still worse!

  • i like it, when he says h"lost one" he just does it because of the problems he got with putting two cards on a table :)

  • WHAT DECK?!?!

  • You're the dummy card!

  • Did it ever occur to any of you haters that he's revealing it because there are, yes shockingly, there ARE people who want to know how it works. He's not doin it cause he's a douchebag who wants to ruin magic tricks. He's not here to entertain you. If i type in 'how to get out of a locked boxed magic trick' then it's cause I wanna see the technique. If i type in 'box escaping tricks' then i just wanna see the 'magic trick'. It's that simple

  • @TheSoulOfBasement15 thats its whats wrong with magic

    people that dont know how to perform trick

    teaching the tricks... the people that learn them learn them bad....

    And no.. " there are people who want to know how it works"

    when you see a magic trick and you dont know how there is a part of you that wants to know how its done...

    but that is just ruining magic

  • @TheSoulOfBasement15 its easy to learn these tricks or to find out how they're done... you go to the magician's website who is responsible for creating the effect (note that this prick didn't even have the decency to credit the original performer - not that he's doing it well anyway) and you PURCHASE the trick. because, yes shockingly, magicians earn a living with their magic.

  • great one :D

  • Thanks for ruining secrets of magic... People like you is getting magic disapear....

  • your presentation was horrible, completly change wayne houchin's trick, your way of doing it kinda gives the trick away. wayne's presentation is the best

  • Great job revealing legit magic tricks buddy, such a fail I mean honestly.

  • Wow. You all need to chill out. Who cares if he messed up? He's going to reveal it to you anyways. And "it makes it harder for people who make a domestic living off magic tricks". Uhm, get a real job then? Performing is supposed to be a hobby. If you're trying to make a living off it then you obviously did something wrong in your life. People who actually love to perform should take the time to make new tricks then. So really now, shut up. :)

  • @DeannaMariee Sorry Deanna, but I can't agree with that. There are quite some magicians who make a living out of performing magic, for instance by doing 3 shows or gigs a day. How did they do anything wrong? What about musicians making a living out of performing music rather than making records in the studios all day long and not being able to perform for real? Performing is the real deal.

    If you won't be able to make a living out of it, like this guy, you're doing something wrong.

  • Let's add the fact that every art is sort of limited. Just like music, visual art and what not, magic has its limits. As the basis is already there, it's hard to create really new things. And it's exactly that basis of magic people give away here on YouTube and the internet. Why? Cause they don't have any talents, they can't perform, and it's their only way to get noticed.

    I even daily get people commenting stuff like: "Why did he only perform it?? Where is the tutorial?" It's really sickening.

  • @MarkHilkemeijer get a life kid. 

  • @floopsie666 The fact that you leave a comment like that makes me wonder if you actually have a life yourself. Not to sound like an egotistical ass but I bet I have much more of a life than you.

  • @MarkHilkemeijer

    i DONT believe magic is limited... if magic was limited it wouldnt be magic.the POINT of magic is to ESCAPE the reality of the world. the point of magic is to defy the limits and disprove any limits that only man themselves give the world and THEY alone call these limits. the very man who truely has a LIMITED... imagination... magic is only limited in someones mind... by lack of imagination. anything is possible. anything in the world, no matter the effect.

  • @ellusionistjoey As much as I'd like to agree with you, the ways to achieve the impossible are limited. That's all I meant. You could still combine stuff, make variations to existing tricks, use completely different objects, and so forth but the basis will still be similar. That's all I meant.

  • @MarkHilkemeijer

    Chad Nelson sadi "ANY effect you creat in your mind doesnt have to have a method. when you think about an effect you would like to do, dont focus on a method to do the effect. DO the effect you want to see and a method will fallow QUICKLY. but maybe not so quick. maybe the effect you want to see isnt possible but it is. what i mean is maybe the method your waiting for doesnt exist yet. the technology doesnt exist." technology is expanded by the ideas and imagination of men.

  • @MarkHilkemeijer fuck you cunt hes good . with your small balls you cant do any of this tricks in front any amount of crowd .!!

  • @nuri590 Awwww did I hurt you? Guess you, unlike me, will never make a living out of magic. I'm so sorry.. not.
